How do I clean my Clarks Craft Swift shoes?

Troubleshooting
My shoes feel a bit too snug.
Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks. Remember the footbed is removable, which can provide extra space if needed. Leather uppers may stretch slightly with wear. If persistent, check your UK size conversion.
The leather looks dull or dry.
The premium leather requires care. Apply a suitable leather conditioner or cream to moisturize and restore its luster. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.
There's a squeaking sound when I walk.
Often, this is caused by the removable footbed rubbing against the inside of the shoe. Try removing the footbed, sprinkling a little talcum powder inside the shoe, and then reinserting the footbed. Ensure the footbed is seated correctly.
The rubber outsole seems to be losing grip.
Check the outsole for excessive dirt or debris lodged in the tread. Clean thoroughly with a stiff brush and mild soapy water. If the tread is significantly worn down, it may be time to consider replacement.

Care & Maintenance
- Cleaning the Leather Upper: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a high-quality leather cleaner following the product's instructions. Regularly condition the leather to keep it supple and prevent cracking.
- Cleaning the Outsole: Brush off any loose dirt from the rubber outsole. For stubborn grime, use a mild soap and water solution with a stiff brush, then rinse and air dry.
- Drying: If shoes get wet, stuff them with newspaper to absorb moisture and allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, which can damage the leather.
- Footbed Care: The removable footbed can be taken out periodically for airing or gentle washing with mild soap and water if needed. Ensure it is completely dry before reinserting.
- Storage: Store shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Using shoe trees can help maintain their shape.
